Description
This security bulletin contains information about 9 secuirty vulnerabilities.
1) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-1471)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data within the SnakeYaml's Constructor() class. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted yaml content to the application and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3171)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input containing multiple instances of non-repeated embedded messages with repeated or unknown fields. A remote attacker can cause objects to be converted back-n-forth between mutable and immutable forms, resulting in potentially long garbage collection pauses.
3) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-31197)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the java.sql.ResultRow.refreshRow() method when processing column names. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database using the statement terminator, e.g." ;".
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to read, delete, modify data in database and gain complete control over the affected application.
4) Incorrect default permissions (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41946)
The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to application stores files with sensitive information in system's temporary directory. A local user can read the files and gain access to sensitive information.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-41966)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger a stack overflow error and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
6) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42003)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data when the UNWRAP_SINGLE_VALUE_ARRAYS feature is enabled. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.
7) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42004)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control usage of deeply nested arrays in BeanDeserializer._deserializeFromArray. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
8) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-42889)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an insecure variable interpolation when processing untrusted input. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted input and execute arbitrary code on the target system.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
Note, the vulnerability was dubbed Text4shell.
9) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-0044)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists if Quarkus Form Authentication session cookie Path attribute is set to "/". A remote attacker can perform a cross-site attack and obtain sensitive information from the cookie. The vulnerability affects Vert.x HTTP component.
